## Abstract Control of the synthesis of trehalose during the induction of anhydrobiosis was examined. Kinetic parameters for TPS did not change during the induction, indicating that there was no de novo synthesis of an isozyme. TPS activity doubled in the presence of a mixture of Na^+^, K^+^, Mg^++

✦ Synopsis
During induction of anhydrobiosis the nematode Aphelenchus avenue synthesizes large quantities of trehalose and free glycerol t h e carbon for which apparently originates from lipid. In the present paper we show that these worms possess a functional glyoxylate cycle by which lipid is converted to carbohydrate, Furthermore, we suggest a mechanism for regulation of the pathway during induction of anhydrobiosis.

## Abstract Ataxia telangiectasia mutated protein (ATM) is a member of the phosphatidylinositol‐3 kinase (PI3K) family, which has a role in the cellular response to DNA double‐strand breaks (DSBs). In the present study, we evaluated the role of ATM in cell‐cycle control in dopaminergic rat neurobla
